I was cleaning out some things in my storage room and came across this craft I did a few years ago. It's definitely one I want to revisit this year. There's a bit of prep work involved, but it makes an adorable decoration.
What you need:
- Foam tree cutouts, I used my Die Cut machine and cut my own.
- Scissors
- Hot glue gun & glue
- old CDs
- Sequins
- Small holiday decorations
- School glue
- Glitter or fake snow
To make the tree take two tree cutouts and using scissors cut half way through the middle of the tree from top to bottom. On the other tree cut half way through the middle from bottom toward the top. Fit the two pieces together by placing them snug into the slots you just cut.
Using your hot glue gun attach the tree to the middle of the CD with the shiny side of the CD facing up. Once the tree is dried and standing straight up, glue on the other decorations. I used a small present and a tiny candy cane. Now it's ready for the kids!
Have the kids use school glue to add sequins for ornaments. Once the sequins are on, have the kids spread glue all over the CD and put the white glitter or fake snow on top of the CD.
Enjoy!
